just got this 88 supra turbo,

it needed alot of work.

we replaced the hg, alot of hoses (car would barely run when we got it)

we did a compression test and everything was fine but cylinder 3 has 0 compression... so we did the hg then put everything back togeather....

now we still get 0 compression in cylinder 3 and the car wont turn over...we checked everything, getting air, and fuel, and spark


what can be the cause of this???


thanks for the help

 

warped head, srtipped threads in the spark plug hole, fubar'ed valve seats.

was the cylinder wall all tore up on #3? did the piston look to be in good shape? were the valves sealing to the head?

 

valves were fine, cylinder 3 was fine, piston was fine everything was perfect,


i would just crank and try to turn over.i was told that it might not be getting spark?

 

If anyone knows these motors and thinks they can help out i would be eternally greatfull!!

let me know

 

spark doesmt matter with the zero compression on 3. ther is a serious problem there. pull a plug and keep the wire on it and hold it against the block(hold the insulated cap, not the plug it self) and have someone turn it over. check for spark.

 

this should help a little.


SUPRA TSRM

 

how about this.... $300 to anyone who can fix this car.... the compression AND getting it running??

lol

 

wish i had the time.
